School party comes to a stop; a question of what is right and moral

Having a party or function at the school where all the students enjoy, it is a wonderful experience. You have fun and good memories with your friends.

But this school party was stopped.

Egyptian education authorities have suspended two local officials over a party held at a school featuring belly-dancers, a type of entertainment violating school regulations in the conservative country.

The head of the school in Giza south of Cairo, where the party had been allegedly held, was suspended pending an investigation into the incident, a spokesman for the Education Ministry said on Friday.

The undersecretary of the ministry in the area has also been suspended for having attended the show.

The incident drew attention after an online video went viral purportedly showing three belly-dancers performing in the party at a well-known school in the Giza’s Pyramids district.
